Southern star Revathy, the actor-filmmaker known for directing films such as Mitr, My Friend and Phir Milenge, will direct the yet-untitled Tamil and Telugu remake of Vikas Bahl’s critically-acclaimed 2013 film Queen.

“Revathy has been roped in to direct the remake. While the lead cast is yet to be finalised, the film will have dialogues in both the languages by actress Suhasini Mani Ratnam,” said a source.

Queen is the story of a young Punjabi girl, played by Kangana Ranaut, who embarks on her honeymoon to Paris after her fiance calls off her wedding. The source further added that the project is slated to go on the floors later this year.

“Suhasini has finished worked on the first half of the film. She’ll spend next couple of months finish work on the second half. By October or November, the film will most likely go to the sets,” he said.
